How it works

Three steps to a hands-off wine day

From first message to last drop-off, the path stays simple—so you can focus on the people at your table, not the map.

01

Send the basics

Date, pickup (hotel, Airbnb, or estate), headcount, and any must-visit stops. Call, WhatsApp, email, or use the form at the bottom of this page.

02

We confirm your driver

We lock timing, assign someone who fits your day, and double-check that your vehicle and itinerary make sense together—before you’ve poured the first glass.

03

You taste; we drive

Your driver meets you on time, runs your route, handles parking and pace, and brings everyone home safely when the plan is done.

Service options

Most guests start with an hourly driver in their own car. When that is not the right fit—bigger groups, no rental, or a turnkey night out—we shift you to chauffeured vehicles without changing the level of service.

Our vehicle + chauffeur

Sedan through party bus—ideal when nobody wants to coordinate a rental or your headcount outgrows one car. Rates start from $85/hr depending on vehicle; taxes, fuel, and minimum hours apply as quoted.

Why choose us

Wine country is too expensive and too fleeting to spend it watching the clock in a parking lot. We built Napa Tour Expert for guests who want the day to feel effortless.

Frequently asked questions

If you do not see your question here, reach out—we answer fast.

Do you really drive our car?

Yes. You provide a legal, insured vehicle (yours or a rental). We supply a sober, licensed driver for the hours you book.

What is the minimum time we can book?

Hourly designated-driver days are sold in 6- or 8-hour blocks so your driver can commit fully to your itinerary.

Is the 20% gratuity part of the $49?

No. $49/hr is the base; 20% gratuity is calculated separately so you always know the math.

What if we need you to bring the vehicle?

Choose a chauffeured sedan, SUV, van, or party bus. Compare options here—minimum hours, tax, and fuel are quoted upfront.

Do you work in Sonoma or pick up in San Francisco?

Regularly. Share your full route when you inquire so we can quote drive time and logistics accurately.
